How soon is too soon to start looking for someone new after a separation?

That is Anonymous’s question on Breakfast with Martin Bester’s Asking For A Friend this week.

Anonymous asked listeners and the Breakfast team for their opinions.

“While we are still going through the divorce process, with a court date scheduled, my soon-to-be ex has already started dating,” he said.

“I think it is incredibly brave, but someone close to us feels it is disrespectful towards me.

“I do not agree with this sentiment, but I would like to know what listeners think.”

This is what people had to say.
